Rivlin in New Delhi talks tighter security ties

NEW DELHI – Israel wants to increase its security and defense ties with India, as the two countries are joined in their battle to fight terrorism and radicalism, President Reuven Rivlin said on Thursday in New Delhi.

“There is positive and growing cooperation between our countries in many areas of defense and security,” Rivlin said in the midst of an eight-day visit, which he hoped would pave the way for a free trade agreement between the two countries. “We also face a common challenge in fighting terrorism and radicalism.”
